"no country wants the guantanamo people incarcered in Guantanamo, so we need to keep him incarcerted because we are really very afraid of them"
What?. No country wants the leftovers? They are not animals, are humans without rights.
USA, YOU create this shame, it is your duty to solve it.
So you want options? ok, here goes one option...
what if you'll release him and give them the USA citizenship and formal apopogies as retaliation?, A very small one for all they have suffered, seems to me.
Free this people, return them their dignitiy, a job and a life, and them disintegrate the guantanamo buildings to the roots, You can start the demolition just tomorrow if you wish.
> But they could be terrorists!
A lot of CIA agents ARE terrorists, and they are free. Nobody seems worried in USA by the idea of have one of this sadistic people in his neighborhood
This is not a shame to USA, is a shame and a pain for all the human race, and WE are the human race.
These are people who are charged with wanting to kill people and otherwise destroy the USA. There is no shame in locking people up who want to do that, though you can disagree with the charges all you want.
Wake-up. Where are his lawyers? where is the invisible jury?
If a real judge finds that some of they are guilty they should just be put in a real Jail. Just like any other american citizen. Can't see any real problem with this. Guantanamo IS still helping to destroy the USA, in fact, and should have been destroyed many years ago.
Why would a non-nation state actor need a lawyer? I could see returning the Taliban fighters to Afganistan since they were representing some sort of government. For people who have been picked up as part of Al Qaeda and its affiliate networks I don't really have a problem with holding them indefinitely.
I find the use of drones to kill Americans, and the casual acceptance of collateral damage to be far, far worse. Those Americans may have done terrible things but were still Americans with Constitutional rights, unlike someone we picked up in Yemen or Somalia.
As long as you use smart arguments, the opposite view is most than welcome. Everybody wants the same, that USA be able to clean and close this hideous and rotten page of his history.
But to declare that something "was charged with horrible crimes", when there was not even the slightest trace of a fair trial, is not an argument, is just to think that the rest of the world is plain stupid.
And to say that: "Some terrorists tell us that other guy was fantasizing with killing people so has been locked for the rest of his life and was his human-toy since them... and I don't see ANY problem with this", is just heartless cynism. What if they just lied to you?.
Currently in my country, with some thousands of evictions a day by the greedy of some "banksters" (formerly rescued by the people) a lot of people fantasize sometimes with a grand piano falling over the Minister of Finance in the most "ItchyScratchiest" way possible and that, after this, he rises and smiles with a denture of white keys, chirping birds around the head and all the stuff.
Boy, these millions of bad people should be locked and chieftly we _must_ assure that they never ever be able to join the jail band!... ;-)
